Every parent knows that packing, when there is a baby in the equation, takes a lot longer. It has to be planned and done in advance, in order NOT to forget anything which may cause parents and/or the baby inconvenience.

Travelling is hard enough as it is. A forgotten binky or diaper could mean disaster.

When my first born was still an infant, paranoid me even had a printed packing list. I didn't trust myself to remember everything, all the time. However, despite my preparedness, there were still times when I was caught unawares. You just sometimes cannot judge how often the baby would need a change of clothes, I have experienced. There were times when I found myself carrying more than enough that I looked like I was travelling for more than 16 hours. And then, there were times when I (with the same number of clothes) found myself nearly tearing my hair out for not bringing enough.

Here's an idea which might help. Bring spares. Yes, more. They wouldn't be heavy as it is pre-packed in a nice yet functional travel case. It would even fit in the side pocket of your baby backpack.

"babysparewear™ is the designated spare outfit for baby. The idea is simple yet sophisticated. It's the stylish evolution of the "emergency" spare outfit. Each kit is pre-packed in a chic travel case and designed to simplify on the go leaks and spills. babysparewear looks smart on baby-and even smarter on mom."

What about you? How many shirts or bodice do you bring for your baby?
